This year my parents did the qurban and I was the one who did the actual slaughtering. My younger brother helped to hold down the 2 sheeps. Alhamdulillah, I got to experience that.
That made this year's Eid different and even more so, it made me reflect on the sacrifices that my parents have made for me and my siblings. It makes this Eid different. Instead of thinking how you can sacrifice for the sake of Islam, you can also appreciate how others have sacrificed for you.
"It is not their meat nor their blood that reaches Allah; it is your piety that reaches Him." (Surah Al Hajj : 37)
